Dear President Obama,

Comprehensive School Quality Reviews: FairTest has
collaborated with Coalition for Effective Schools on a Working Paper
(PDF) and a Summary (PDF) of a Review system. 

“A Better Way to Evaluate Schools” outlines a 3-part school evaluation system – school quality reviews, limited standardized testing, plus school-based and local evidence.

"Multiple Measures: A Definition and Examples from the U.S. and Other Nations."

Includes a 2-page summary, 10 pp of text, and 2 appendices.

The Forum on Educational Accountability has released its 2010 recommendations for the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), currently named “No Child Left Behind.” FEA prepared this summary of the recommendations. (PDF file)
